Maybe it’s just because big business gives money to the politicians to make their businesses more profitable and the government gives big business our tax dollars in exchange for contributions.

Well, after all that TARP money and tax forgiveness, what happened? Wall Street got record bonuses ($135 B in 2010) and then increased our fees on everything.

The Left and the right fight over a few billion in tax cuts vs food stamps for the unemployed, when CITI got a whooping $38 Billion tax break.
